BOARDMAN
MRS. A. T. HEREIM, Correapondent
Well, such a week! We just fin
ished boasting about our climate;
that California would envy it! when
old man Winter hits us hard. Mer
cury fell in many thermometers till
it couldn't be read, anyone having
a thermometer that registered no
lower than 30 below was blissfully
ignorant of the fact that it touched
34 and 36 below in some places on
Tuesday morning. Cold continued
for several days with people busy
shoveling coal and emptying ashes,
with farmers trying to keep stock
warm and fed. The snow was deep
and it seemed as though it were to
be an endless procession of snow
flakes. No school was held all week
as it was Impossible to keep the
temperature up in the building, al
though Brice Dillabough shovelled
coal both day and night for a time.
The teachers employed their time
in going over the library thorough

arranging books. They found some
interesting books that may prove of
value later, some printed as far
back as 1850.

day and Thursday with the blade

on the railroad for years. When
asked recently if he had ever been
robbed during all his years of ex
perience, he told this yarn: "Yes,
we've been robbed. One place we
lived upstairs over the station. One
night we were awakened by an ex
plosion, followed by a dull thud.
'It has happened,' we thought The
explosion was no doubt the safe
and the thud was the falling of the
door. I arose, took my always load
ed revolver and started cautiously
down the stairs, gun in hand ready
to shoot or be shot Creeping into
the office, it was found by the light
of the moon that everything was
untouched, nothing out of place.
Puzzled, I looked out of doors. Ev
erything was all right the moon
light made it almost clear as day.
However, on going into the baggage
room the trouble was found. A
keg of sauer kraut and a box of
groceries had been unloaded for a
farmer that day, the groceries be
ing placed on the keg, since they
were for the same party. During
the night the sauer kraut had fer
mented, blowing the keg to pieces.
The dull thud was the box of gro
ceries falling to the floor. Sauer
kraut was splattered over the walls
and ceiling but otherwise no harm
was done." That was one time they
experienced a real thrill with an
antl -climax.

Present Bad Market Expected to
Eliminate Scrub Stock From
Many of Nation's Herds.
Though the immediate situation
is anything but bright for the dairy
man, present conditions may lead
to a readjustment of the entire in
dustry beneficial to dairymen in
business on a major scale rather
than as a sideline, believes P. M.
Brandt, chief in dairying at Oregon
State college, who has made an an
alysis of the present market crisis.
The decline in the dairy market.
though greater than expected, was
forecast in the federal and state
outlook report of a year ago in
which it was pointed out that but a
slight increase in production or drop
in consumption would raise the do
mestic supply above the demand,"
said Professor Brandt.
'It is apparent that the present
status of the industry can only be

changed by adjusting supply and
demand. Whether this will be
brought about by increased con
sumption or curtailed production or
both, will proably be determined
largely by general economic condi
tions." Professor Brandt believes that
present market conditions afford
the best opportunity for eliminating
low producing or diseased cows
from herds and for increasing the
use of dairy products on farms, as
well as for making a unified educa
tional campaign on the danger In
substituting vegetable oils for dairy
products.
"The present condition may result
in the elimination of many small
herds as well as individual unprof
itable cows and thus stimulate the
industry by centering most of the
production in the larger herds op
erated on a purely business basis,"
explained Professor Brandt
"Dairy products have not been
advertised in Oregon as have veg
etable substitutes. Last year there
was an increased consumption of
substitutes almost equal to the but
ter surplus at the end of the year.
The dairy industry must actively
stimulating consumption by educa
tion and advertising. In this far-
mers may well set the example by
using only dairy products in their
own homes."
There Is No Substitute
(Continued from First Pit)
the only milk that should be relied
on to supply it."
Vitamin A is one thing that but
ter contains which so-called substi
tutes lack. There are others. But
ter is a composite food, while most
things substituted for it contain
simple fats and carbo-hydrates.
The editorial page of Hoard's
Dairyman of the issue above quoted,
says: "The superiority "of butter to
oleomargarine has been shown
many times In the feeding of small
animals. Rats and guinea pigs have
been fed rations just the same ex
cept that one lot will have received
butter and the other oleomargarine.
The results of these tests have
shown In every Instance that the
rats receiving butter made a better
growth and reproduced their kind
in better vigor and strength.
"This fact has also been observed
in various charitable institutions.
When these institutions sought to
economize by using oleomargarine
they have In many cases noted an
increase of disease and lack of
thrift on the part of Inmates. Per
haps the most conclusive evidence
of this was made In a survey of an
orphanage in the city of Rochester,
New York, some few years ago.
Seven children whose average age
was 11 years were fed on a uniform
diet, except that the butter fed dur
ing the first six months was replac
ed by oleomargarine during the sec
ond six months. During the third
period of six months, butter was
again furnished.
"Here are the surprising results:
The average gain made by each
child in the first six months when
butter was used was 6.32 pounds.
During the second period when oleo
margarine was fed, there was no
gain in weight Indeed, the chil
dren averaged a loss of 1.35 pounds.
When butter was replaced the third
period of six months, the children
again came back with a gain of 8.12
pounds for each child."
Dietary experts on every hand
proclaim butter one of the most
essential elements of the child's diet
"Older people feel that they can
save by buying a cheaper fat,"
writes A. L. Haeckr In the Cream
ery Journal, "but it would seem
that they forget tl.elr short years
on this earth, and no doubt by us
ing butter and more wholesome
food they would lengthen their
days."
If everyone will give butter the
place in their diet that its import
ance demands, children who espe
cially should not be denied it will
be given the health-providing nutri
ment it contains, while one of the
leading sources of cash money in
our own county will be greatly ben
efitted. This, from Hoard's Dairyman,
should apply in Morrow county:
"Farmers and those dependent upon
them for prosperity, yet who fall to
consume dairy products and who
purchase so-called substitutes,
should be held up for public con
tempt and ridicule, not only for
their neglect of the health of their
own flesh and blood but for their
treason to the industry of which
they are a part"

builder, was looking after business
